I was wondering if this mint mark looks out of order to
anyone. Specifically the bottom tail of the "S"
Lincoln Cents are not my area
Just does not look right to me for some reason.
Any thoughts or opinions are greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Terry

Could be a RPM-004. Nice cent!

Terry: A closer shot might help? I don't seen any RPM from the image provided. It's not 004.

Figured out what looked out of place on this coin
It is the tail of the "S" that looked out of place to me
I looked up the RPM-004 in the Cherry Pickers that bpoc1
mentioned and in the description they mention a
Trumpet Tail "S" I never knew that any Lincolns had that type
of mint mark.
I only knew about the Trumpet Tail S on the Mercury dimes.
There is no doubling on the mint mark.

Thank You guys

Terry
